Background
This model informed the
development of a CICO
algorithm, which has become
popular in Australia3
SHEEP
CICO
Techniques
tailored to the
skills of
anaesthetists
Conversion to
cuffed airway
once critical
hypoxia resolved
Scalpel
only
Experience in wet lab shows: If
scalpel fails, blood in airway
limits success of subsequent
cannula attempts (loss of air
aspiration end-point)
Scalpel only
Cannula
rst
Experience in wet lab
shows: failed cannula
attempt does not limit
success of subsequent
scalpel attempts
Failed cannula does not
significantly limit success of
subsequent cannula attempts
either
Failed cannula is identified
quickly (no air aspirated)
multiple attempts possible,
quickly
Cannula
rst
Both
cannula
and
surgical
can
be
successful
with
correct
equipment
and
technique
Both
can
fail
too
It
makes
sense
for
anaesthe@sts
to
try
both
if
necessary
This can only reliably be done with cannula
first
Transi5on
to
CICO
Cricothyroid
membrane
(CTM)
is
dicult
or
impossible
to
palpate
in
the
majority
of
human
CICO
scenarios6
DAS

requires
anaesthe@st
to
make
a
decision
about
type
of
surgical
technique
at
the
point
of

based
on

NAP4
Vs
NAP4
All
surgical
aFempts
in
NAP47
were
performed
by
head
and
neck
surgeons
NAP4
does
not
give
any
data
on
the
success
or
failure
of
surgical
techniques
in
the
hands
of
anaesthe@sts,
as
no
anaesthe@st
chose
surgical
Especially if using a
ManujetTM.

We recommend seeking
endpoints to determine

We do not recommend a
long incision if the trachea
is palpable

Do
AWAGs
recommenda5ons
have
any
DAS
support?
Yes.
There
is
explicit
support
in
the
guidelines

Do
AWAGs
recommenda5ons
have
any
DAS
support?
So
AWAG
is
con@nuing
to
promote
the
Australian
CICO
algorithm
in
Wales,
alongside
helping
departments
set
up
regular
training
and
equipment
requirements.
